UNH community to reflect on life of slain student

DURHAM, N.H. (AP) — While authorities continue to search for the body of a University of New Hampshire student, the university community will gather this week to reflect on her life.

Nineteen-year-old Elizabeth "Lizzi" Marriott of Westborough, Mass., disappeared Oct. 9 after attending a class at the Durham campus. A 29-year-old Dover man, Seth Mazzaglia (mah-ZAY-lia), has been charged with second-degree murder and is accused of strangling or suffocating her in his apartment the night she disappeared.

A gathering to remember Marriott is planned for Thursday at 12:30 p.m. in front of Thompson Hall. The university had planned to be holding a forum on its master plan at that time, but that event will instead be held starting at 1:15 p.m. in the Huddleston Hall ballroom.
